Maven using wrong version of javax.validation

Question

I have a dynamic web project I have been working on that uses hibernate as a jpa provider. Up until the last week, I could insert, update, query, and delete from my databas

Answer 1

Do mvn dependency:tree , May you have another dependencies that use hibernate-annotations, and conflict with your spring version, also you can find them and exclude from class path, as below:

 
    
       org.hibernate
        hibernate-annotations
    
  

I hopefully help you.
